  1. BK is a genius, and can do just about anything, but I know he's always pretty busy with the mods he's doing.
  2. Sometimes people may notice the watch, but they always compliment the car. When is China going to come out with the rep Lambo?

  4. Thank you for sharing BK, a very sad story. Perhaps one of the most beautiful things about owning a watch is the story behind it and the lives that have gone into creating and maintaining it. Gen or rep, this is always the case and I'm grateful to those that made WM9 a reality for so many of us.
  5. Great words guys. From what I've gleaned here and around the internet it appears that: 1. The most important thing is to have your watch serviced regularly. This gives life to moving parts like nothing else. 2. There's no point to keeping a watch running for months on end if you're not wearing it, but a watch winder can be helpful if you like to rotate watches regularly. 3. It is good for an automatic watch to see real life wear and not to sit for months on end without running. 4. Manually winding your watches daily will put unnecessary wear and tear on the winding mechanisms. 5. Perhaps the best way to bring a watch back to life is to put it on your wrist, allow it to charge naturally, set the time, and ENJOY the magic on your wrist. I'm really appreciating the wealth of knowledge here. Thanks!
  6. Hello Friends, Once the drawers and closets start to fill up with automatic watches we're all faced with the question, "should I keep them running, and if so what is the best way to do so?" I'm surprised at how little debate I can find on the merits of watch winders vs. hand winding each watch daily. Which puts more wear and tear on the watch parts, which is healthier for the watch? The general consensus seams to be that keeping watches running is a good idea. What do you do? I'd love to hear your anecdotal feedback, and appreciate anyone who actually works on watch movements chiming in. How do I keep this guy running? Gen. Armand Nicolet Perpetual Calendar with Moonphase
